The Taj Mahal took around 22 years and some 20,000 workers to build, with materials hauled by an estimated thousand elephants. Its marble changes colour through the day — pinkish at dawn, white at noon, gold under moonlight.
The clock: Agra keeps UTC+5:30. The monument opens for night viewing on just five nights a month, around the full moon.
Agra lies at 78.0°E. Its time zone, UTC+5:30, is built around the 82.5°E meridian. The 4.5° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 18 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 12:18 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+5:30 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 13h 51m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 10h 26m. The swing between them is 3h 26m. At this latitude the seasons are visible in the clock, but never dramatic.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Agra the sun comes up earliest on 11 June at 05:23, while the latest sunset waits until 3 July at 19:16. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Agra that civil twilight runs about 23 minutes at the equinox.
